I have NOT received any confirmation from Kaplan that they offer anything but the TOEFL and USMLE here. They keep neglecting to address the MCAT in their correspondence. Furthermore, I can't seem to find where she can take the MCAT in the DR. Suggestions?

Might getting officially married in the US or DR mess up her parents application?

>>?May she go to TOEFL and MCAT training school in the US on an F1 VISA?

GREAT suggestion! That would definitely be ideal. Now I need to find out how long 'till her appointment. Thanks, HB

The best laid plans... I am estimating that all this will take around 10+ years.

How do I message the consulate?
